EPC GROUPE: EPC Groupe joins the United Nations Global Compact and reinforces its commitment to responsible and sustainable growth

EPC Groupe (Euronext - EXPL) announces its accession to the United Nations Global Compact, marking a significant milestone in the strengthening of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) approach.

By joining the Global Compact, EPC Groupe commits to supporting and promoting the Ten Principles of the Global Compact relating to human rights, international labour standards, environmental protection and anti-corruption.

The Groupe thus confirms its commitment to fully integrating these principles into the core of its strategy, its corporate culture and all its day-to-day operations worldwide.

EPC Groupe also intends to contribute actively to the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), notably through its participation in collaborative initiatives promoting responsible and sustainable growth. This commitment will be the subject of clear and regular communication to all its stakeholders and the general public.

A FUNDAMENTAL COMMITMENT BASED ON TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY

In accordance with the requirements of the United Nations Global Compact, EPC Groupe undertakes to publish an annual Communication on Progress (CoP) (from 2027), detailing the actions implemented to apply the Ten Principles.

By adopting this approach of transparency and continuous improvement of its CSR policy, EPC Group confirms its commitment to strengthening its positive impact and actively contributing to more responsible economic development, for the benefit of all its stakeholders.

"EPC Groupe's accession to the United Nations Global Compact marks a key milestone in our transformation journey. It reflects our commitment to making sustainability a cornerstone of our strategy and a driver of long-term performance. "By joining this leading international initiative, we are reaffirming our commitment to acting responsibly and creating sustainable value for all our stakeholders," said Olivier Obst, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EPC Groupe.

A LONG-TERM CSR APPROACH

For several years, EPC Groupe has been informing its stakeholders of its commitments and performance in the area of sustainability through its Sustainability Report (previously the Statement of Non-Financial Performance). The 2025 edition, covering the entire financial year, will be published on 30 April 2026, alongside the Universal Registration Document.
